Paying $15.00 minimum would put many places out of business. If you want to pay $7.00 for a big mac, that's not realistic. I worked in payroll for a large manufacturer where factory employees made $25.00 doing daywork but that was 10 years ago and now that is down to $15.00 per hour because no way you can compete with china in manufacturing.
